Mount the MB-145 in a dry location near your power source, ideally in a shed or weatherproof box away from direct rain. Connect the live and earth terminals to your fence wire and a good earth stake driven at least 1 metre into moist soil—this is critical for the energiser to work properly. If using mains power, plug into a standard 240V outlet; if running on battery, ensure terminals are clean and tight before connecting to the fence. Tips: Keep vegetation trimmed back from your fence line regularly, as heavy plant growth will drain energy and reduce your effective range, sometimes cutting it in half. Test your fence weekly with a voltage tester to catch problems early—a working energiser should read 5000+ volts at the wire. Make sure your earth stake is genuinely in damp soil and hasn't dried out over summer; a poor earth is the most common reason farmers think their energiser isn't working.
